Parasites were observed in medium-and small-sized fish taken from the discards of a commercial shrimper during seven different cruises in the tidal channels of the North Frisian Wadden Sea (S~deraue, North Sea) from April to September 1991. In total, 442 fish comprising four species (Sprattus sprattus, Hyperoplus lanceolatus, Ammodytes tobianus, Pomatoschistus minutus)were investigated. The parasite fauna consisted of 22 species. The parasite community structure of the 4 hosts was compared. The diet of the hosts seemed to be the main factor determining the structure of the parasite community. Other factors could not be assessed. Eight species of parasites occurred as larval stages. This indicated that fish were intermediate or paratenic hosts in their life cycle. The nematode Hysterothylacium sp, (Anisakidae) and the digenean Cryptocotyle lingua (Heterophyidea) were the dominant parasites, reaching their highest prevalence and density in sprat and sand eel. Sprat and sand eel play a very important role in parasite transmission to predacious fish and seabirds.

Brevimuticaecum sp. Diagnosis: Third-stage larva. Small translucent nematodes. Ventriculus at base of oesophagus with several short ventricular appendixes, extending anteriorly and posteriorly. Intestinal caecum present. Excretory pore at nerve ring level. Conical tail without mucron. Site of infection: Liver. Remarks: According to Luque et al. (2011) third-stage larvae of Brevimuticaecum are diagnosed based on the presence of several short ventricular appendices. Fig 1. Anterior end of third-stage larva of Brevimulticaecum sp in lateral view. Abbreviations: iintestinal caecum; nnerve ring; vventriculus.
